Sudan 1927 Postage Due Steamboat Set

Sudan · 1927 · 2, 4, 10 Milliemes

This set of three postage due stamps from Sudan features a detailed engraving of a steamboat navigating a river, with palm trees and distant hills in the background. The design is framed with the country name 'SUDAN POSTAGE TAX' and the denomination in both Arabic and English.

Issued during the period of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, these postage due stamps were used to collect unpaid or underpaid postage from recipients. The steamboat motif reflects the importance of river transport, particularly on the Nile, for communication and commerce in Sudan during the early 20th century.
